The length of a rectangle is shown below:

if the area of the rectangle to be drawn is 10 square units, where should points c and d be located, if they lie vertically below the line that connects b and a, to make this rectangle?

c(-1, 1), d(1,1)
c(-1, -2), d(1,-2)
c(-1, 5), d(1, 5)
c(-1, -7), d(1, -7)

Second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see in the graph attached, the lenght of the side AB is 2 units.

The formula for calculate the area of  rectangle is:

Where l is the length and w is the width.

Therefore, if the area of the rectangle to be drawn is 10 square units and you know AB=2 units and CD  lies vertically below BA , then you can solve for the length:

Therefore C and D are located at:

The correct answer is,

Option 2).  C(-1, -2), D(1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,If the area of the rectangle to be drawn is 10 square units

To find the length of rectangle

From the figure we get length of AB = 2 units

Therefore Area = length * breadth = 10

Therefore length = 10/2 = 5 units

To find the points of C and D

we have B(-1, 3)

The point C is 5 units below the point B

Therefore C(-1, 3-5) = C(-1,-2)

we have A(1, 3)

The point D is 5 units below the point B

Therefore D(1, 3-5) = A(1,-2)

Therefore the correct answer is option 2

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
